Quick Wear: Love still depends on two love brains
Chapter 75: The Decisive and Killing Goddess of War vs. the Crazy and Paranoid Emperor 5
At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall was heavy and solemn.
"Your Majesty, I have a report to you that Luo Yifeng, the top scorer in this palace examination, bribed the Minister of Rites, Li Dao, the inspector.
Both parties agreed to use specific words as marks in specific locations on the test paper. I have evidence!"
Censor Chen Ke was filled with righteous indignation and looked at Emperor Cangming.
Di Cangming sat on the dragon throne, his head supported by his hands, his narrow and long phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, and his voice was very low, "Present it."
The eunuch Xiao Fuzi at the side immediately walked over without making a sound, quickly took the memorial and handed it to him.
Minister of Rites Li Dao hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this is unjust! Censor Chen is wrongly accusing me! Your Majesty, please investigate!"
Di Cangming flipped it open and took a look, a hint of sarcasm on his lips, "Unjust? Who would dare to wrong you, Minister Li?"
As he said that, he threw the evidence at Li Dao's head.
Li Dao didn't dare to cry out in pain even after being hit. He knelt down and picked up the memorial with a terrified look on his face. He looked at Prime Minister Lin Haisong with pleading eyes.
Lin Haisong gritted his teeth.
Damn it! They actually got caught!
Li Dao was someone he promoted, and the top scholar was also his student! Now both of them are going to fail!
His face was so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it. He closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, this practice disrupts official order. According to our laws, the examinee must be stripped of his honors and exiled three thousand miles away. The examiner must also be severely punished!"
"Prime Minister, what should the punishment be?"
"According to...according to the law, he should be dismissed from office and executed...but Lord Li Dao..." Prime Minister Lin Haisong said this with a bit of nervousness, "He has been quite diligent in the past. Perhaps...perhaps he can be given a lighter sentence."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Cangming looked towards Lin Haisong below and said nonchalantly:
"Working diligently? Prime Minister, are you pleading for him?"
Prime Minister Lin Haisong knelt down with a thud. "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have absolutely no such intention. Everything is entirely up to Your Majesty's decision."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
The other officials immediately knelt on the ground and said in unison.
Emperor Cangming stood up from the dragon throne, picked up the sword beside him that was gleaming with cold light, and walked down the stairs step by step. Each step was accompanied by a suffocating sense of oppression.
"You're going to die sooner or later anyway, Minister Li, I'll give you a ride."
As soon as Di Cangming finished speaking, the knife flashed, and the sharp blade instantly cut through Li Dao's neck.
In an instant, blood spurted out, drawing a scarlet arc in the air, and then sprayed on Lin Haisong's face.
Prime Minister Lin Haisong knelt on the ground, and even though his face was covered in blood, he did not dare to look up. He lowered his head and watched Li Dao's warm blood spread on the cold floor tiles, forming a shocking pool of blood.
This is a warning from the Hades!
Di Cangming turned around and casually threw his sword into Xiao Fuzi's hands. Xiao Fuzi immediately took it respectfully with both hands, and then quickly handed him a snow-white handkerchief.
Emperor Cangming wiped his hands expressionlessly and sat back on the lofty dragon throne. "As for that so-called champion, just drag him out and chop him off."
Upon seeing this, Xiao Fuzi quickly stepped forward, her shrill voice echoing throughout the hall: "I have a petition to submit. Otherwise, I will withdraw."
An old minister with gray hair and wrinkled face said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, the throne is now vacant and you have no children. For the sake of the country, I hope you will appoint a queen as soon as possible!"
All the ministers echoed the sentiment, no matter they were from the Prime Minister's faction, the Hades Emperor's faction, or the neutral faction, they all knelt down together. For a moment, the hall was filled with crowds of people.
Everyone shouted in unison: "We hope that Your Majesty will establish a queen as soon as possible to reassure the people and strengthen the foundation of the country!"
Emperor Cangming looked at the heads below, curled his lips, and said with a cold tone, "I see that you all have a lot of free time. Why do you meddle in my affairs every day?"
The ministers did not back down, but continued to kneel on the ground and beg desperately.
"Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a queen for a day. The harem has been empty for a long time, which is not a blessing for the country!"
The veteran of three dynasties who had just spoken looked indifferent, as if death was nothing to fear.
Emperor Cangming said nothing, and the ministers did not dare to move, and the air fell into silence.
"Report! Urgent! The Quan family army has won a great victory!"
This loud shout broke the silence in the hall, and Di Cangming's eyes showed a slight fluctuation, "Read."
The messenger hurried up to the hall and presented it to Xiao Fuzi with both hands.
Xiao Fuzi opened the letter and read it in an excited tone: "General Zhengbei led the Quan family army to capture five cities in succession and killed two barbarian princes and three generals.
First, in the Mobei area, General Quan led his soldiers to launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp under the cover of night, defeating the enemy with a smaller force!
Afterwards, they confronted the enemy head-on. General Quan led the troops. The barbarian prince tried to command the army to counterattack, but General Quan rushed into the enemy camp alone and took the prince's head.
Immediately afterwards, General Quan commanded the army to pursue the victory, captured three more cities in succession, and killed three barbarian generals!
The ministers also showed joy on their faces. The barbarian land had always been the enemy of Daxia, committing all kinds of atrocities such as burning, killing, looting and so on. However, due to its advantageous geographical location, it was not easy to defeat them. Now they had been defeated!
"Your Majesty, this great victory is truly a blessing for our dynasty. It seems that General Zhengbei intends to annihilate the barbarians in one fell swoop and eliminate future troubles!" A general said excitedly with his fists clasped.
"Yes, Your Majesty, General Quan is brave and good at fighting. If we can give him more support, the barbarians will surely not dare to invade our borders again." Another minister echoed.
Lin Haisong popped up at this time, "Your Majesty, General Zhengbei will be returning to the capital soon, and the general's marriage to my son should be put on the agenda."
Di Cangming glanced at him sideways, his narrow, long phoenix eyes revealing a hint of coldness. His thin lips curled slightly under his high nose bridge, as if he was smiling. "Tsk, Prime Minister, what do you think my queen should look like?"
Lin Haisong didn't know why the Dark Emperor said this, but he still replied, "She must be a model for an emperor's daughter."
Emperor Cangming nodded thoughtfully, tapping the dragon throne with one hand, his slender white fingers tapping again and again, and speaking casually,
"Is there anyone in the world more suitable than General Zhengbei? Why not... let's appoint him as General Zhengbei."
The ministers were also shocked. Snatching my wife? Even though she was my fiancée, she was still half my wife.
Even the ministers on Emperor Cangming's side couldn't bear to watch. Although they were unwilling to let General Zhengbei marry into the Lin family, they couldn't just say that!
"Your Majesty! This is absolutely unacceptable! My son and General Zhengbei have been engaged since childhood. He has been waiting for the general for several years and has yet to marry!"
Lin Haisong was so anxious that his face turned red, veins popped on his forehead, and he fell to his knees with a thud.
That girl Quan Jiuxi has hundreds of thousands of troops under her command. If Qinghuai can marry her, it means that all the troops are in the hands of the Lin family. How can she become the queen of the Tian family!
Emperor Cangming smiled playfully, his expression gloomy and unclear, and slowly stood up.
"This is the first time I've seen a Prime Minister kneel so loudly. Then wait until you find a woman in this world who is more outstanding than General Zhengbei, and then come and persuade me."
"Also, General Zhengbei is about to face a major battle. If any of you dare to tamper with the food supplies, don't blame me for killing his entire clan."
Di Cangming's voice was slow, but filled with terrifying cruelty.
After that, he turned around and left.
The ministers knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe, and said, "Farewell, Your Majesty."
Lin Haisong looked at Di Cangming's departing back. He slowly stood up from the ground with a gloomy expression.
The entire court was filled with a depressing atmosphere, as if a bigger storm was about to come.
